External genital reconstruction following tumor ablation presents reconstructive surgeons a great challenge. Male external genital structures are not easily replaced by extragenital tissues. Recent advances in the design of flaps and the use of microsurgical tissue transfer techniques have remarkably improved the functional and aesthetic results of genital reconstruction.
